Beyonce in Proenza Schouler at the Grammys: boring or beautiful?
Beyonce Knowles’ Grammys red carpet dress was such a snooze. She wore this black Proenza Schouler which looked like a million other dresses, and it even looked like gowns Beyonce has worn before on other red carpets. I sort of give Beyonce some credit though: she’s won a bajillion Grammys (and she won three more last night, making her total Grammy haul 20), and it really felt like she was there as an already established icon, like she doesn’t have to try-hard and attention-grab and all of that (coughMadonna). When she won one of her Grammys last night, she did thank the most important people in the universe: “I’d like to say thank you to my Beyhive. Thank you guys for riding so hard.” They do ride hard.
Beyonce was saved for the next-to-last performance of the evening, singing “Take My Hand, Precious Lord.” It’s an old Civil Rights Movement song and Bey did it well. But I think she got schedule-blocked by producers who decided to put on f—king AC/DC on the opening. How much better would it have been if THIS had been the opening?
One last thing – Beyonce and Jay-Z’s faces as they thought Kanye West was going KANYE all over Beck’s win last night. It was everything.
